We had a great Thanksgiving at Aunt Rhonda and Uncle Dan's in Des Moines. First we got a big ol passenger van and the whole fam came along. When we got to Des Moines we saw the rest of the fam at Rhonda and Dan's loft. The food was amazing and it was great to see everyone. Jamison also got a chance to play with Gabe who is only a couple months older than him.
In other news, we had a doctor's appt for Baby G the II in beginning of Nov. They couldn't hear the heartbeat so we got to do an ultrasound. At that time I was 11 weeks and that is very common for them to not be able to hear the heartbeat with doppler. The ultrasound was great and I got to see the heartbeat! The baby's heartbeat was 167 so it could be a girl! I have my next checkup this week but there shouldn't be an ultrasound with this appt. I am hoping to get my next ultrasound before Christmas so we can find out the sex of the baby. I am at 14 weeks right now and counting!
Jamison has been doing great lately. He has been sleeping through the night since he was 9 months which we absolutely love! He is getting into everything and climbing on anything he can get his hands on. He is also starting to run away from us sometimes when he knows he has something that he shouldn't. = ) He will eat anything and is not picky. His fave foods are shells-n-cheese, bananas, pancakes, vegetables, apples, plums, kiwis to name a few. He had his 15 month doctor appt last week and he is still only 19 lbs. The doctor said that she isn't worried because he looks healthy, but he is still not on the growth chart for weight. For height and head circumference he is in the 25th percentile. He also had his last 2 immunizations! Yeah no more shots until he is 4!
Andy and I have been busy getting ready for Christmas. We have almost half of our Christmas presents bought and our cards will be coming in the mail anyday so we can get them out to friends and family. We are planning a trip to Ohio to go to see my family for Christmas. We hope the weather is ok! (Fingers crossed) Well I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Here are some pics from ours!

Fun in Minneapolis
This last weekend we went to Minneapolis to visit Dana, Aaron, and Kaden. We also went to go get the next baby's crib, changing table, diaper champ, potty chair among a few other things. We had a great time! We went to an apple orchard and the kids absolutely loved it. They had farm animals, rubber duck races, wagon rides, and a kids play area. We went and picked a few apples and bought a whole bag of apples with caramel. MMM! Jamison had his first apple and we couldn't get it away from him.
In other news I had my first ultrasound and found out that I am due May 25th! That will be perfect; then I can have the whole summer off to recover. We also heard the baby's heartbeat and it was 142! We are so excited for the next baby and I think Jamison sort of understands cuz he likes to look at my belly. I am starting to show a little bit. Also I have been feeling tired but not half as tired as I was with Jamison. I have been feeling a little more nausea than last time.

We are having another baby!
We just found out that we are pregnant again and we are super excited for baby G # 2. I know my due date will be in May sometime however I am not sure when. I have my first appt with the nurse on Sept 21 at 9am. Then probably an ultrasound around 8-10 weeks. (Hopefully I can get it sooner!) We have told a few people but decided to go public kind of early. (Fingers crossed) We can't wait for the new addition and for Jamison to have another brother or sister. Also starting this week I will be working 4 8 hour days a weeks versus 5 days to help with the needs of our family. It is great that I have an employer that is willing to work with me!
In other news Jamison has been doing great and is playing with everything and getting into everything. He is pretty excited for the new addition but really won't know what it means until the baby is here. He weighed 16lbs 8 oz for his one year visit and he is lower than the growth chart for weight. If he keeps going on this trend we will be referred to an endocrinologist just to make sure that nothing is wrong. The doctor doesn't think that it is anything, but she would rather be safe than sorry. I feel the same way. He is very active and eats all the time. He will eat anything that is put in front of him. It is so nice to not have a picky eater. We are so fortunate. Well I hope everyone has a great week and will keep you posted with updates!

Jamison's First Birthday
This weekend we had Jamison's first birthday party! It was a construction theme and we had cone hats and Construction Pals on the plates and napkins. We also had sack lunches for supper. We bought charlie boys, which are kind of like taverns or loose meats, grapes, chips, baked beans, cake and ice cream.
We had a ton of family and friends at our house and Jamison got a lot of toys, clothes, and money for his college. Earlier in the day we went swimming at Steve and Roxanne's and it was a blast like usual. It was such a great weekend and it was really good to see Grandma Marsha and Grandpa Bill, Aunt Dana and Uncle Aaron, and cousin Kaden! The whole weekend was a blast and we are sad that it is over with. Here are some pictures of his birthday http://www.flickr.com/photos/thegouldfam/sets/72157624656556811/show/

First Birthday
Today is Jamison's first birthday! Mommy took the day off and we got a few things done for his big party this weekend. Then we went to the park and J had fun in the baby swing. Later on Steve, Roxanne, and Liz came over and we have burgers, beans, and potato salad. I had also made cupcakes and Jamison loved his cupcake. We got a video, however I will need to post that later.
Mommy and Daddy can't believe it has been a year since his birth...it has been one of the most amazing years of my life. We couldn't imagine our life without Jamison! Happy First Birthday Jamison!

We are getting super excited for his first birthday which is only a couple weeks away. We are also hoping that our master bath remodel is done before then since my family will be coming! We had some pipes crack underneath our masterbath back in June and we have decided to remodel the masterbath since the floor will already be tore out. It is a huge project and we can't wait to have our masterbath back! Well I hope everyone has a great week!

My 30th birthday
I realize it has been awhile since I have posted something so now is better than ever. I had my 30th b-day yesterday and it was absolutely amazing. In the morning Andy made me breakfast and had the table set with beautiful flowers and then I opened up a coach purse. That day I got a manicure and pedicure and then Jamison and I went swimming at Grandma Roxanne's house with Aunt Liz and Great Grandma Thelma. Later that night we went to El Fredo's with the whole fam and topped the night off with cold stone creamery cupcakes. The video of Jamison is him eating some vanilla cake. We wanted to do a trial run for his first birthday and I thought that my birthday would be a great time for him to try it! He went nuts and loved the cake. He shoveled all of it into his mouth! It was super cute! Here are pics from my b-day http://www.flickr.com/photos/thegouldfam/sets/72157624430279053/show/
Since it has been awhile I will update you. In June Jamison had to go the ER because his daycare lady gave him some eggs and we found out that he had an allergy just like Andy. That is why we wanted to try the cake first before his first birthday cuz I didn't want him to have an allergic reaction on his first birthday.
Also another development is that Jamison is walking! He started walking at 10 months and now walks 90% of the time. It is so cute because when he wants to quit walking he just lands on his bottom!
Jamison's eating schedule now is that he has about 3 bottles of formula one in the morning, afternoon, and before he goes to bed at night. He also eats meals about 3-4 times a day. He will eat anything and is not picky. His fave foods are cheddar cheese rice cakes, cottage cheese, cheese, chicken, sausage, pepperoni, blueberries, vanilla cake to name a few. As long as there is food in front of him he will eat it!
Jamison also sleeps through the night. He goes to bed around 8pm and wakes up at about 6:30-7am. He doesn't get fussy very often but right now he is teething so he hasn't been feeling the best. He has his bottom teeth in and is getting his top teeth in right now.
We are getting super excited for his first birthday and it is just around the corner. It is hard to believe that it has been a year. It has been one of the most amazing years of my life and I am so happy to have Jamison in our lives. It is just the greatest thing to see life through a child's eyes. Well I will definitely be posting his first birthday pics soon.
